Looking great with the drop jack :good:
Makes the car look very mean. Some wider profile rims will make it look even better!

Thanks Ian. I agree it makes it actually aggressive. I really like walking up to my car now.
Rims are pretty low in the priorities list. I'd like to get tint done next. And there is some things to fix in the engine bay :(

as Ernie Dingo use to say. "you never never know, if you never never go". your car should be capable of going much lower. look at how low Nick's (ITS-STI) use to be. yours is not that low

Yeh but Nick doesn't have my centrepipe, the K2 gear centrepipe sits quite low. It scraped on my driveway and speedhumps with the bilsteins and s-techs...I'm fairly certain at the ride height I'm at now with the coilovers it's JUST avoiding scraping

Modify my centrepipe? Are you nuts that thing is almost worth a used car :lol: And it helps to keep the noise levels at an acceptable level so replacing is out of the question!

Thanks for the advice though, in the words of Pharrel & Snoop - "Drop it Like It's Hot"

Hahaha you two are... :lol: And to quote The Bee Gees "I get low and I get high, and if I can't get either, I really try."

Sounds like someone having centre pipe issues :wink:

AND i went Plasti-dip nuts after Nick picked up a couple of cans for me (cheers bud)
I'm going to have to touch up a few edges as it doesn't tear easily when you take the tape off. all this used not even 1 can :shock:
